Very nice property! We enjoyed ourselves immensely!

The property definitely exceeded our expectations. The setting was very peaceful and relaxing, and we took full advantage of the amenities. Proximity to the golf courses and pool, and the town of galena helped to make our weekend memorable. Seeing the flock of wild turkeys wandering around the yard was a nice surprise!

Galena is never disappointing

Everything was great. The only comment is that towels were left in the washer. Didn’t change the 5. Star rating for cleanliness. Really doesn’t sleep 10 unless you have 4 willing to share a bedroom with 2 queen beds. No pullouts or other options

6 friends from nursing school gather every 2 years from across the country somewhere & we selected Midwest this year. Wonderful time of year; good restaurants & interesting shopping. Great home to relax & catch up on our lives together. Very comfortable accommodation with everything you could ask for. Owner himself was very prompt with answers & fixing a small snafu. Would certainly stay again.

Overall it was nice. Plenty of room. Good location. Well stock with kitchen necessities. Problems getting all the jets to work in hot tub. No firewood when arrived but they took care of it. Could use a good cleaning. Very expensive so expected perfect, but it was not. Had some good and some not so good.

Yearly Family Vacation

This rental was perfect for our family. It was really beautifully appointed with everything we needed for our stay. We like that all the children could sleep downstairs. There was also a comfy family room in the lower level with a game table & TV. It was nice to send the children downstairs so we could have "adult time" on the main level. The kitchen is very well equipped and provided all the tools we needed since we cooked most of our meals at the house. We loved the screened porch, fire pit, hot tub and the large side yard where the children could run off all their energy. We have stayed in many Galena Territory rentals but this home "checked all of the boxes". It's awesome & we highly recommend it.

Great house

We had a girls getaway weekend. The house met all our needs. The four bedrooms, three with king beds and one with two double beds worked great for our group. The kitchen was very well stocked. We enjoyed the hot tub. There was also a fire pit that we did not use but was very nice. The absolutely best thing about the whole rental was that we could put our trash in garbage bins right there on the property. Other houses we have rented in the territories force you to load up garbage bags in your car and take them to the dump. I would rent this house again just for that reason! I wish other property owners would do the same. It is so annoying after paying cleaning fees and hostess fees to be required to load garbage into your car to take to the dump.

Thanksgiving family getaway

My husband and I rented The Green on Southridge for us, our two grown kids and their families. The house was set up perfectly for our situation, 10 people and two dogs in all. We enjoyed the hot tub and the firepit in the backyard, the pool and gym at the Owner's club building, as well as strolling around the charming town of Galena. The grounds at this house are gorgeous! It's situated in a heavily wooded neighborhhood with rolling hills and ravines. We took a lot of hikes down the streets and walking trails. We also had a surprise visit from friends who were at the resort on Thanksgiving night. Lots of laughs and fun were had all weekend!

Great Family Home

We stayed at this property while attending a family reunion that was being held in the Galena Territories. Our host was very engaged with us from the moment we booked our stay. He helped us confirm that his home was the right place for our family. As we approached our rental dates, our host sent extensive materials about the property and the area including restaurants and golf lists. He also included property instructions and packing lists. For example, we knew that the property had both a drip coffee pot and a Keurig machine, so that we could pack appropriately. When we arrived, we were greeted by our hosts neighbor and friend who showed us every light switch and window blind in the property. We were also instructed on how to maintain the water quality in the hot tub during our stay. We have rented through VRBO many times, but this was the most personal greeting we have ever received. The property is meticulous. Our host provided new bar soap, hand soap, and dixie cups at every sink. The kitchen is well stocked to serve all the guests and then some. Our host provided snacks, a welcome bottle of wine, and coffee. The beds are comfortable, the towels were thick, and all cleaning products and trash bags were provided. The description of the property and surrounding amenities is very accurate. One of the greatest features of this property is the direct access to paved walking trails and the Eagle Ridge Resort (3 minutes away). We will definitely stay here again.

Very clean house with all the amenities you need. There’s always one thing I wish I’d had brought when we stay in a VRBO but this one had it all. Four couples stayed for a three night stay. Owner was super nice and made sure the house met our expectations from the moment we arrived. We hope to be back soon. Don’t forget your swimsuit. Hot tub was also very clean. Overall a fantastic place if this is an option you are considering. You won’t regret it!

This is truly an amazing property in the Galena Territory. Well appointed, spacious, fully-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds. We especially loved the fire pit and had campfires every night. We also loved the screened-in porch where we had our morning coffee and afternoon wine. It rates as one of the very best VRBO’s we have stayed in. If you are in the area, don’t hesitate on this one!
